Spiritual Warfare: 'God, You Are My Hiding Place!'

God's Power for Our Battles — Friday, May 22, 2026

For you are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of victory. The Lord says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you."
— Psalm 32:7-8 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, You are my hiding place. You are the One I seek. You are the protection I need. I yearn for Your advice, Your guidance, and Your help. Show me which way to turn. Put me right where You want me to be to do the most good. Watch over me as I make this journey. Continue to show me when to turn left, and when to turn right. You are the victory I seek, Lord, so bring me safely home to You. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
